‘A Day for Dad’ photo submissions

05/02/11

Father's Day is coming in June, and the Henrico Citizen wants to honor fathers throughout Henrico County with a special focus in its June 2 edition – and we'd like your participation!

We invite you to submit a favorite photo of yourself (and siblings or other relatives if you'd like) and your dad (or, if you are a dad, a photo of you and your children). We'll publish selected photos in our June 2 print edition and others here on HenricoCitizen.com. Some submissions will also win giveaways!

If you'd like to see your dad in print, find your favorite photo and submit it to us by clicking here and then selecting "A Day for Dad Photo Submission" from the drop-down menu. Or, you may email your photo to us at .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address). Please put "A Day for Dad" in the subject field.

For all submissions, please include your name and the names of everyone who appears in the photo. Please also include a contact phone number and/or e-mail address so that we may contact you if your submission wins a prize!

St. Joseph's Villa’s Flagler Housing & Homeless Services was one of three entities to earn the National Alliance to End Homelessness' Champion of Change Award. The awards were presented Nov. 17 during a ceremony at the Newseum in Washington, D.C.

Flagler completed its transition from an on-campus shelter to the community-based model of rapid rehousing in 2013, and it was one of the nation's first rapid re-housing service providers to be certified by NAEH. > Read more.

It’s going to be a cold weekend so if you’re headed out to the James River Parade of Lights or the Richmond Road Runners Club Toy Run 5K in Innsbrook, you’d better bundle up! If you’re looking for some indoor ways to celebrate the holidays, check out Three-Penny Theatre’s production of “A Christmas Carol: A Ghost Story for Christmas” or “To Drive the Cold Winter Away: An Irish Celebration of the Returning Light” at the Unitarian Universalist Community Church in Glen Allen. Also this weekend – the Henrico Theatre will show the holiday classic “Home Alone." For all our top picks this weekend, click here! > Read more.
